Signs

So in general things are pretty similar to the States, but I have noticed a number of striking differences. It seems everything has a sign for it. Now obviously once you figure them out it all makes sense, but to the casual observer they can be quite confusing. Here is my first impressions of the most interesting so far.

If you walk really funny, like Frankenstein you are not allowed!













If you are running go left!













If you are going to jump, spread your arms and legs wide!

Welcome to Amsterdam! Not sure what the point of this really was, but it was in the Tube and couldn't pass it up.

Not sure if its supposed to taste like booty or come from your booty, but either way, I will pass.

Feel free to make your own jokes

Be careful!! Triangles in the road!

Yeah its sign for speed bumps, but interestingly it gives perfect directions to our flat. Coincidence?

Watch out for pointy Ns!!

Not sure if the one on the one on the left is the mugger or the muggee. If the mugger is on the left then it looks like he is really happy to be giving the hug. If the mugger is on the right, then yeah watch out, they will break your leg!!

Did I mention we don’t have heat? Yeah still no heat. Low of 30 last night. Frost all over everything. Took a 20 minute shower to warm up this morning. On my way to work walked past more than one house with its windows open. Don’t know how they can deal with it but damn!!!
